1) ======= Flight Lines =======
[Observations on business and life]

Hear reason, or she'll make you feel her.
--Benjamin Franklin

One man's word is no man's word; we should quietly
hear both sides. --Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There are (at least) two sides to every conflict and
every decision that we have to make. Be sure to choose
the one that is reasonable. That's the one that usually
has the "ring of truth" in it.

"What Are You Telling Yourself?"
by Ralph Moore (c)2004

Many years ago, I was taught a basic principle of life, a
"spiritual" principle, if you will.

Simply put, it is this:

"Confession of belief yields receipt of confession."

Doesn't look like much, does it? Just seven simple words;
And yet, if you understand the principle behind the words
and put it into practice, "mountains can be moved".

Whenever I share this phrase with anyone, they generally
say something like... "What was that again?"

Let me explain.

The word "confess" really means "to tell", and from the time
we were all "infants in arms", someone has been telling us
what, when, how, where and with whom to live our lives, in
one fashion or another.

In fact, we've become so accustomed to being told what to
do, that we have often "continued the dialog internally".

We are constantly "telling" ourselves what we believe to be
true about ourselves, both good and bad.

Have you ever seen the poster "If...." by Dorothy Law Nolte?
It starts out...

If a child lives with criticism, He learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility, He learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule, He learns to be shy.

and ends up with...

If a child lives with security, He learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval, He learns to like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, He learns
to find love in the world.

While the teachings of childhood may seem to be a distant
memory, the things that we have been taught to believe
about ourselves remain locked into our subconscious and
become our own "internal dialog" until we replace them with
something else.

Have you ever been "goaded" into doing something that you
had never done before? At first, you may have been tempted
to say "Oh, I can't do that. I've never done that before.
I wouldn't know where to start."

Once you decided to change your mind though, and began to
"confess" the positive, chances are you were successful.

Regardless of what we were taught to believe about ourselves
in childhood and beyond, we can't change the past. But we
can begin to replace any negative or limiting beliefs about
ourselves with positive "confessions".

There's an old saying; "If you think you can or if you think
you can't, you're right!"

Words are powerful. Words can be used to:

Start a war or work toward peace.
Pass judgement or urge on to greatness.
Criticize past behavior or look to the future.
Keep at a distance or make a new friend.
Remain in poverty or acquire new wealth.
Recall the past or learn new things.
Discourage others or reward their efforts.
Put to sleep or motivate to action.
Acknowledge fatigue or build new energy.
Accept failure or inspire success.

What are you telling yourself now? I believe that when we
choose to "tell ourselves" positive words of success and
encouragement, we can overcome limitations and go on to
reach our goals, whatever they may be.

Instead of saying to yourself, "Oh, I can't do that. I've
never done that before. I wouldn't know where to start",
how about saying "I can do this. This looks easy. Show me
where to start."

Remember...

"Confession of belief yields receipt of confession."

Begin today, by telling yourself whatever it is that you
need to hear, so that you can go on to receive the things
that you want and need.

[Sites and services that we recommend]

"Murphy's Law" Website

In contrast to the article above, here's a site that will
give you a chuckle or two. Sometimes it seems that no
matter how hard we try, things are just determined to go
"haywire".

There's something in there for everyone. Be sure to look at
"Tech Laws", "Computer Laws", "Commerce Laws" and "Graphic
Design Laws", just a few of the many categories that seem
to define the way things happen, no matter what we do.

If you missed the article above, now would be a good time
to read it. Maybe you can avoid experiencing "Murphy's Law"
next time around.

"Actual Signs Posted By Businesses"

Sign on an electrician's truck: "Let us remove your shorts."

Maternity Clothes Shop: "We are open on labor day."

On a Front Door: "Everyone on the premises is a vegetarian
except the dog."

On a Maternity Room Door: "Push, Push, Push"

[Tools to help you "get a grip" on things]

"Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder" - Courtesy Utility

The Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder is a freeware utility that
retrieves your Product Key (cd key) used to install windows
from your registry. It has the options to copy the key to
clipboard, save it to a text file, or print it for
safekeeping. It works on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP,
Server 2003, Office 97, and Office XP. This version is a
quick update to make it work with Windows Server 2003.

This provides important information that you might need if
you ever have to update or reinstall the Windows operating
system and have your cd but can't locate your Windows
manual that has the Product Key on it. On newer computers,
this same info can be found on a label on the outside of
the computer.

Excellent "Html-Kit" Web Page Editor

If you need an html web page editor, look no more. This is
a powerful full-featured editor with more bells and whistles
than many editors that cost an arm and a leg. And this one
doesn't have to cost you anything, other than the time it
takes to download it and run the install program.

This is the best of the user-supported editors that I have
ever seen. The editor is free to use, but if you do decide
to register it, it will cost just $49.00 and you will gain
access to a host of "plug-ins" that enhance this already
powerful program.

[Ideas to inspire better communication]

Susan and John were leaving the grocery store. Susan said,
"These bags are too heavy!" John replied, "Stop whining!
If you gave me one of your bags, I'd have twice as many as
you, but if I gave you one of mine, we'd have the same
number". How many bags did each have?

Answer to Last Issue's Puzzler...

[A peasant asked for the hand of the king's daughter.

In order to prevent this, while appearing "fair" in front
of his loyal subjects, the king ordered that two notes,
one saying "granted" and the other saying "denied" be
placed into a hat.

When the peasant later overheard the king saying that both
pieces of paper would read "denied", he did something at
the drawing that assured his success. What did he do?]

He tore up the note which he had drawn from the hat. This
forced the king to read the other note which said exile.
